1. Ron Hill's quoting of Kate saying "the human being as house" in Get Out Of My House should put paid to all the doubters and nay-sayers. Get it through your heads: I'm always right. 2. Larry: Nice description of the Japanese box set, but you left out one tiny, rather insignificant in the grand scheme of things detail. How much did the bugger cost? If you paid for it in yen, tell us what that would be roughly equal to in dollars, since I am totally ignorant of the conversion ratio. --Jon "Shut that damn bird up" Drukman

In Jon's usual style he's taken the ball and run clear out of the stadium with it. I've repeated "the human being as house" that Kate mentions many, many times and it really doesn't have a thing to do with rape. The question of whether to shut things out or let them in is fairly common in Kate's work. I don't think there's enough justification for the idea that _Get Out of My House_ deals with such an uncommon theme when it's clearly even more applicable to a fairly common theme. _Leave it Open_ in many ways seems to be the much the same idea. Right down to the "cleaning" references. "Don't drive too slowly." Richard Caldwell AT&T Network Systems att!cbnews!nrc nrc@cbnews.att.com
